The Config.sys and Autoexec.bat files I posted are for the machine I use
for Coyote project development. (Coyote is a project to pull together
software for use on recycled computers). I have Windows 3.1 on that
machine as well as a number of other dos shareware applications, so the
config.sys and autoexec.bat files have a lot of stuff in them that
doesn't directly relate to arachne.
The important lines are the "VDISK ..." and "NWCACHE ..". The VDISK
entry allocates ram to virtual drive D:, which is then assigned as
"d:\TEMP" with the environment name="TEMP" that sets it up as Arachne's
temp directory. The nwcache entry sets the size of disk cache, and
should be kept reasonable small. Too large a disk cache will slow things
down and we don't need that on an older machine :-)
